Overview

About High Meadows

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

High Meadows is a two-bedroom detached house in Barnacre, Preston, Preston (PR3 1RP). It has a recorded floor area of 230 m² (around 2476 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 2007 onwards. The latest certificate (October 2015) shows a C (score 75), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in May 2009 the rating was G, the property has climbed 4 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and window efficiency went from Poor to Good; while lighting dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 92), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from October 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since August 2010, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. Today's modelled estimate of £599,000 sits 103.1% above the 2010 sale of £295,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£119/sq ft) was about 44% below the postcode norm. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 75% of similar EPCs). One historical planning record sits against the property in 2022.
